Serve:
a. Heat a small griddle over medium heat. Warm the tortillas on the griddle for 30 seconds each side.
b. Set the tortillas, avocado (pit, chop into ½" cubes), red cabbage (thinly slice), jalapeno (deseed as desired, mince), green onion (thinly slice), lemon (slice into wedges), cilantro (rough chop) and the lime crema on the table. Let diners assemble their own tacos as desired. Pop open the beer and enjoy!
Chef's notes
Instead of serving the tacos with cubed avocado, you can also make guacamole. Mash the avocado and stir in 1 garlic clove (mince), a small red onion (finely chop) and a tomato (finely chop). Add a tablespoon of lime juice and salt to taste. Mix well. Leave in refrigerator for half an hour for the flavors to blend.
